Quest Visits OLCG Preschool

and instructors in attendance! The program details were also shared and discussed with school
administration. The Kiddikins promotional dvd was also viewed.

demonstrate Kiddikins games with your kids, discuss program details, and give feedback on how
Kiddikins could best be used at your individual centre.

Kiddikins Interest List Available
Live in a community that does not offer a Kiddikins based program? Call or email and have your name
added to the list! Quest Leisure Ltd. is pleased to collect names of parents interested in a Kiddikins based
program. If you are interested in having a Kiddikins based program offered in your area, call or email
Quest Leisure Ltd. and your name and number will be added to the Kiddikins Provincial Interest List. If a
Kiddikins based program opens in your area, Quest Leisure Ltd. will contact you regarding contact

Note: Personal contact information of parents is confidential to Quest Leisure Ltd. and would not be given to a
Kiddikins based centre directly or to any other party. Parents are not committed to register for a Kiddikins based

there are people in the area who are ‘interested’.
KiddikinsBased Programs Have Financial
Growth Potential
Kiddikins based programs have the potential to grow physically and financially.
One Kiddikins based program has grown from one class to five classes with names on
an interest list 5 years in advance! Initial start-up equipment costs for a Kiddikins
based program are very minimal (> $1500). The more costly items, the Kiddikins
kit, a certified first aid kit, small class refrigerator, project staples (scissors, stapler,
bins etc.) and activities for ‘centres time’ can all be used year after year.
Kiddikins
creative projects supplies are required each year, but projects are designed using a
small amount of supplies that are typically readily available at low cost in most
communities.
For more details relating to the start-up of a Kiddikins based
program, contact Quest Leisure Ltd.
